This book takes a sick leave from all of these, but can we really ? Can we resign from it all and go away ? The ' Sick Leave' is a collection of short stories about you, and about me, and about the millions in the corporate race.

About the Author

An economics grad currently exploring the corporate space, the author can be best described as a flaneur who observes keenly whatever life throws. When not at work, you can find him engrossed in some novel, or experimenting with colors on a blank canvas, or maybe, roaming aimlessly in the streets looking at some falling piece of wall or an old beggar. This book can be counted as another of his random pursuits, where he captures the vignettes of today's life in stories that stay deep somewhere..
